Almost all of us have found ourselves in a situation when we wake up in the morning and we do not feel like leaving the bed because our body is stiff and exhausted. That is why most of us reach for a cup of coffee right away hoping that it will give us the jolt of caffeine to get our day started. Nevertheless, there are many healthier options we should choose instead.

When you wake up in the morning, your body is at its most acidic state, and that is perfectly normal. It is because the acidic state of the body is bad, so the body undergoes various processes during the night in order to release acids from your system. That is why your body feels groggy. However, the coffee is also acidic, so you see; adding extra acid in your body is not a good idea.
